Acetaldehyde flash point

Compounds with low flash points (below room temperature). Examples are acetaldehyde, acetone, acetonitrile, benzene, carbon disulfide, cyclohexane, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate and -hexane. [Pg.4]

The next aldehyde is acetaldehyde, a colorless liquid with a pungent taste and a fruity odor. Its molecular formula is CH,CHO. It has a flash point of -40°F, an ignition temperature of 340°F, and is toxic by inhalation. Acetaldehyde is used in die manufacture of many other chemicals. Other important aldehydes are propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, and acrolein. [Pg.169]

ACETALDOXIME or -ACETAL-DOXIME (107-29-9) CjHjNO Flammable liquid. Forms explosive mixture with air [flash point 72 to 96°F/22 to 36°C]. Reacts violently with oxidizers. Capable of reacting as both a weak base and a weak acid. Decomposes on contact with acids, forming hydroxylamine and acetaldehyde. Forms explosive peroxides on contact with air, acids. Attacks various alkali metals (i.e., lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, firancium). When exposed to air forms unstable peroxides may explode or decompose violently during distillation.
